I have limited arm movement. I need an undeshirt that is as smooth as skin. Suggestions?

I have trouble (becuse of limited arm movement) putting on a shirt over my undershirt (for winter!) I need an undeshirt that is as smooth as my skin. The overshirt bunches up on the undershirt as I'm trying to get dressed. The over shirt needs to slide over the undershirt like it does over my skin when I'm not wearing an undershirt.

I wear Under Armour tees under my hockey gear. Snug but stretchy enough to get in and out of, and slippery.
Caveat: the crew neck is high enough that it shows if I wear it under one of my cotton tee shirts.

There are nylon men's undershirts on Amazon. They are tank top style, but at least shirts won't cling on the arms.

My husband wears Columbia Ts made of polyester. He is an xtra large but I buy him a large because he wears them under his shirts. He likes them because he sweats big time and they are good for wicking. The link below is Cabela's site. These wash up so nice and are smooth as silk. Can wash by hand, hang up and drybin no time. Scroll down for discription.

Okay I seem to have lost my post so I'll try again. Look for sports base layers made from synthetic fabrics, brands like driweave and underarmour should be readily available at your local sportswear stores.

In general synthetic fabrics are more silky in feel and prevent less pull. However, they don't wash as well and are not as warm. Some people swear by silk long johns. I do NOT. I think they are possibly the coldest things I ever put on. I guess the idea is that they warm when covered.
Good luck in your search. Hope someone has better answers for you.
